The Wayward; The Way to Reward (Chapter VII)
Chapter Seven: The Dream That Was Not a Dream --- I. The child stopped walking. Not because he was tired. Not because the road had ended. But because something had shifted inside him—like a door he had not realized was there, suddenly swinging open.

Chapter Five: The Road of the Unfinished --- I. The child walked on. The light at the end of the road was still there—but it had not grown closer. It seemed to move with him, always the same distance ahead, as if it knew he was not yet ready to arrive.

The Wayward; The Way to Reward (Chapter II)
Chapter Two: The Road --- I. The child stepped through the gate of air—and found himself on a road. Not a road he had ever seen before.

Peggy; O.W. Toad; the Canadian Lioness; our best writer... There has been so much print and ink shared on the life of Margaret Atwood that I feel that this might just be the most pointless thing I have ever posted on Vocal.

Atomic Habits: How Small Daily Changes Create Big Life Results
We’ve all been there, setting New Year’s resolutions or ambitious personal goals, picturing our dream life, and mapping out the perfect strategy to get there. For a few days, motivation is high. Then we skip a workout, break our diet, or miss a deadline. Soon after, we convince ourselves that our goals are unachievable — or worse, that we never really wanted them in the first place.
